Nitto Nt05

Anyone have experience with these tires, seems to be popular in the muscle world. Looking at going 275 35 in the back and 245 40 in the front

Better than 90% of the tires that people run on this forum.

From what I've read, they're as close to semi slicks as it could get while maintaining street specs



They even look mean!

Re-11 > NT05, at least in my experience. I have driven two cars on RE-11 and one on NT05. But compared to most, NT05 would be a better choice than nakangs people run

You should also look into Advan AD08 too.

I would be running RE-11/AD08/RS3/NT05 but none of them have my tire sizes!!!

I almost bought these for my 370z when i had her but i heard many great reviews from fellow members they have Extremely great glue like traction!! only problem is they wear out really fast!! For track these would be awesome for everyday driver but not be so unless you make lots of $$$$ then what the hell. id buy them. oh by the way they come with 7/32nds tread brand new just FYI!!
